Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Nothing but Trouble Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Nothing but Trouble “Knock, knock, knock…” A knocking sound came from the door.
The next second, Sheng Chuyi’s face appeared at the door, and Shen Zhaozhao was startled, almost dropping her phone to the ground.
“Is there something wrong?” Fearing that her recent conversation with Sang Youyou might have been overheard, Shen Zhaozhao felt guilty and quickly stuffed her phone under the covers.
Sheng Chuyi looked suspiciously at her actions and said, “Uncle Shen has cut some fruit and asked you to come out and eat.”
“I don’t want to eat, you guys go ahead!” Shen Zhaozhao feigned calm.
“What’s wrong with you?” Sheng Chuyi pushed the door open and walked toward her.
“I’m fine!” Whether influenced by Sang Youyou’s words or worried about discussing whether she liked him and afraid he might discover her nervousness, Shen Zhaozhao felt inexplicably anxious.
Especially as he approached, her heart couldn’t help but beat fiercely.
The next second, his cold finger touched her forehead and he said, “Why is your face so hot? Are you sick?”
Shen Zhaozhao turned her head to avoid his hand and seeing Sheng Chuyi looking at her skeptically, she hurriedly said, “I’m fine!”
“Shen Zhaozhao, you weren’t looking at something inappropriate, were you?” Sheng Chuyi’s handsome brow furrowed slightly, his gaze then falling on the place where she had hidden her phone.
What does ‘something inappropriate’ mean?
Shen Zhaozhao felt both embarrassed and annoyed and glared fiercely at him. “Not at all, don’t make wild guesses. I was just video chatting with Sang Youyou.”
She couldn’t help but feel irritated at this moment!
Why was she feeling guilty for no reason!
Now it seemed as if there was coin hidden nowhere.
Sheng Chuyi grew more suspicious. Why was she so nervous just video chatting with Sang Youyou?
Seeing that he didn’t believe her, Shen Zhaozhao simply took the phone out from under the covers. “I told you I’m fine. If you don’t believe me, see for yourself.”
Sheng Chuyi saw that it was indeed Sang Youyou’s face on the video and then his doubts disappeared. “If you’re alright then rest early. I’ll go back now.”
Once he left the room, Shen Zhaozhao picked up her phone again.
“Pffhaha…” Before she even spoke, laughter first came from Sang Youyou’s end of the phone.
“You’re still laughing.” Shen Zhaozhao felt both embarrassed and annoyed; if it weren’t for this girl saying all kinds of things, she wouldn’t have embarrassed herself in front of Sheng Chuyi.
“Okay, I’ll stop laughing!” Sang Youyou covered her mouth, but within three seconds, she couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing again. “Pffhaha, I can’t help it. Let me laugh for a bit.”
Shen Zhaozhao’s face darkened, and she ended the video call abruptly.
She shouldn’t have told her those things.
Two seconds later, Sang Youyou sent a voice message: “Don’t be mad, I didn’t mean it. Why were you so nervous for no reason? Now, Chuyi might think we’re discussing some taboo topic in private.”
Thinking of his skeptical look earlier, Shen Zhaozhao’s cheeks flushed with heat once again.
Soon, another message popped up: “Your situation with him isn’t quite like others; you two grew up together and know each other too well. But I still think you probably like him.” If they were just friends, she wouldn’t feel disappointed simply because he has a girlfriend.
Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but stare blankly at that message.
He already has someone he likes, so what could she do even if she did like him?
It would just add to her troubles!!!
